Garoo

My name is Cédric Bozzi and this is my blog. Well… mostly, this is a rerun of all my tweets and the photos I publish on Instagram, but sometimes there might be an actual article or two.

I make websites and iPhone apps, try my best to own one of every item in Apple’s current product lineup, spend my entire life on the internet, and am looking for a flat in Paris.

Oh, I thought I had blogged that, but it was waiting in my notes :

To call copyrighted works "intellectual property" corrupts thought, by subjecting those who want to replace the invention with a more effective one to nonsensical claims of "you’re stealing my property".

Copyright is not a natural right, but merely an outdated invention from the era of the printing press. I rather agree. It may seem paradoxical since I am, on my level, a creator of works, who more or less needs copyright to exist. But… but I’d be better at arguing if I were in a better mood, which is why I had kept this in my notepad. Let’s say, to simplify, that artistic creation existed long before the invention of copyright, and the main difference between a world with or without copyright is that a handful of artists and creators can get rich beyond reason; for all the others, who would be paid anyway, by salary instead of fee, the result would be pretty much the same.
